An Ideal Fit for You

SAP PartnerEdge Cloud Choice, referral option is the ideal fit for IT professionals, business and accounting consultants, marketing agencies and businesses that have strong ties to SMEs. All you do is make a referral generated via email, through your website or social media activities. You don’t have to cold call, do a demo or even talk with a prospect. SAP handles all of that and the invoicing and implementation.

As you look to grow your own business and sphere of influence, teaming up with SAP is an ideal way to make that next step and generate a new income stream that goes straight to your top line. We give you all the right tools and the best thing is there is no cost to join. Now, that’s a winning option!

SAP PartnerEdge Cloud Choice, referral option takes a fresh approach that helps you maximise referral returns with minimal effort, while simultaneously fostering stronger relationships with your network of SME contacts. Unlike other referral programs that resemble nothing more than data-entry exercises – at SAP we understand you want to get paid, but you also value your time and your SME network relations. That's why we've created a program that helps you:

Generate Leads While Cementing Your Trusted-Advisor Status. Entering lead information into a system might deliver the occasional result – but it does nothing to help nurture the valuable SME network you've built. That’s why our program focuses on helping you provide your SME contacts with relevant, engaging and insightful information that is designed to trigger an expression of interest in one of SAP’s SME solutions. That way you can align yourself with the power of the SAP brand, provide your SME contacts value-added insights, all the while nurturing and generating leads that you could be paid on.

Save Time. We've done all the heavy lifting so you don't have to. Simply login to our secure website for pre-written marketing materials – everything you need to quickly build and run ongoing referral generating campaigns about SAP’s dedicated SME solutions. Copy and paste social media posts and images, or select one of our ready-to-go email campaigns, enter your contacts, and click send – it’s that simple. Everything links back to an SAP-hosted website where your referral customer details are captured and the lead is associated with your account.

Track Your Progress. The same secure website provides everything you need to track your progress. The simple dashboard provides insights into your emails, shares, clicks and referral activities. You can also quickly review your revenue and status of commission payments.

Maximise Returns. At SAP, we believe a program built on proven marketing best-practices and the latest social media tactics will out-perform the returns you can expect from traditional lead submission referral programs.

Predictable Profits. If the contact that you referred to us decides to buy SAP software, you get paid. For SAP cloud solutions, you receive a commission of 10% of the first year of the customer subscription value. For SAP on premise solutions you make a 5% commission of the software license value. A maximum payout of €25,000 per deal applies.
